NAME

       Term::ReadLine::Zoid::Emacs - a readline emacs mode

SYNOPSIS

       This class is used as a mode under Term::ReadLine::Zoid, see there for usage details.

DESCRIPTION

       This mode provides some emacs key-bindings, taking the bash(1) implementation as a reference.

       This module also provides a 'emac_multiline' key map.

KEY MAPPING

       These bindings are additional to those in Term::ReadLine::Zoid which already contains some emacs key bindings.

       escape, ^[  (prefix_meta)
       meta-f  (forward_word)
       meta-b  (backward_word)
       ^X^V  (switch_mode_command)
	   Enter (vi) command mode. Taken from zsh(1).

       ^V, ^Q  (quoted_insert)
	   Insert next key literally, ignoring any key-bindings.

	   WARNING: control or escape chars in the editline can cause unexpected results

TODO

       Get count args right (see bash reference)

       A lot more bindings
